There is one strong similarity between Watergate and the slime oozing out of the Obama White House that can’t be ignored.

Watergate created an interesting new cottage industry–the journalist polemic. I’ve never really been able to figure out why this happened exactly, although I blame it, in a large extent, to journalistic frustration with President Johnson over Vietnam. At some point, as Watergate began to break, and it became evident that the news media was on the enemies list, journalists began writing outstanding works of reportage, telling stories that could not be condensed to short spurts of newsprint. Washington insiders began to respond to these works of reportage, and a tidal wave of books deluged the public with sufficient information to really give the American people the ability to understand what Nixon was doing. I’ve also long since concluded that what brought down Nixon wasn’t the third rate burglary, but rather the total lack of credibility held by Nixon, which made two and a half more years of governance nearly impossible. I’ve been watching this trend for thirty years by weighing the books on my book shelf. Watergate takes up shelf after shelf. Iran/Contra takes up shelf after shelf. Whitewater does not. And H.W. and Carter and Ford together comprise about four inches of paper.

But something has happened in the past six months–nearly 40 review copies have landed on my desk, mostly written by center/left journalists and academics, (hard-core Obama territory) which has begun to peel back a very sordid picture of the Obama Administration. Dirty Wars is one example, but I’ve got three review copies that have just arrived that detail the federalization of local police, known as the warrior cop phenomenon, and its not pretty. I’m not sure why this material is pouring out now, other than to say that I get a sense that media now seems to believe that is has been lied to by Obama for the past five years. In Dirty Wars, there is a story of how Obama interfered in the domestic affairs of Yemen, pressuring the government to reverse the pardon of a journalist whose only crime was to report that one of Obama’s missile strikes had killed more than 40 Yemeni civilians. There seems to be a sense amongst journalists now that if the whole world is a battlefield and if Obama can kill Americans overseas, and if Obama is willing to lean on an allied nation to jail journalists for telling the truth, then no journalist in America is safe either. And then came the AP and Fox News scandals, the IRS scandal, the Presidential Bling scandal, and a sense that this president is not only untrustworthy and dishonest, but downright dangerous. At the rate we’re going, the books about Obama’s conduct are going to pass Watergate by early next year in terms of volume. Then we’ll see the counter-books, and maybe some tell-all books etc etc etc.

I’m not sure who Obama thought he was lying to yesterday in his big speech. The man has committed war crimes. That is a fact that absolutely cannot be disputed. Obama is a war criminal who has been given a Noble Peace Prize. And he thinks that the answer to his past war crimes is to replace the right front tire on the car. I’m sensing that both the American people and the American media are really tiring of the War on Terror, and I don’t think that they are happy with the excesses that Obama demonstrated. I don’t think people wanted to hear more lies from Obama yesterday. I don’t think they wanted to hear that Obama, the war criminal, didn’t know what was going on in his administration, or that he is going to tweak what he does in the future. You don’t erase the past by mild reform. If Hitler bought a puppy, it doesn’t erase the monstrous acts of his past.

Obama has engaged in war crimes and treaty violations in more than 20 countries, and he has directly ordered the murder of more than 2000 people and at least four American citizens. For him to get up and essentially tell the people that he is not a crook is not enough. He needs to resign, or he needs to be impeached and removed from office. The Noble Committee should retract his award. And Obama’s next flight on Air Force One should be to the Hague to face justice for his crimes.

I think Charles Manson and the Manson "Family" were a fascist conspiracy to make the hippies look bad. I suspect Manson himself was programmed. He had been in various prisons, where a lot of brainwashing occurs. While he likely learned mind control techniques there, he was also subjected to them. The film industry is involved in a lot of propaganda to get people to go along with the system. The Spahn Ranch was likely used in many of the Westerns that glorified the genocide of the Native Americans and programmed the minds of many people. Many people who got caught up in the Manson cult were vulnerable and naive people who were looking to escape the authoritarianism of their bourgeois families, but instead got taken in by this brainwashed brainwasher who pretended to be a hippie. The Spahn Ranch likely contained a lot of triggers that might have been used in programming the members of the Manson "Family".

This guy is not a Christian if he is sending vulnerable people to a stateless person status. A lot of rightwingers who think they're Christians ain't going to make. Remember, thou shalt not kill, by gun or budget cut.

Oh and further evidence of his being an agent provocateur is quoting an anti-pope of the new Vatican II pseudo-Christianity. It's pretty clear after the Judaeo-Masonic takeover of the Catholic Church with Vatican II that this fully controlled religious entity is being made to be the One World Religion of ecumenism, do as thou wilt and other satanic creeds. SHAME ON CONSTANTINE. I only need use the words of Archangel Michael: Lord rebuke you, alex constantine.

And I forgot about Luke Elliott Sommer and friends who exposed 65 torture centers mostly in Afghanistan. He came home and exposed them, then he and his associates did a bank job for running money. What most people don't understand is that once you violate a clearance, then they start gunning for you. They ran to Canada and then turned themselves in. Then of course there was the talk about how Sommer was going to use the money to start in the canadian ganja businessl weird how it was that when I posted additional information on wikipedia, it would vanish off the site in about a second. Type it in again and once again, the good stuff on the torture centers would vanish, but the garbage about the canadian pot business would still be there. Weird. . .
